Why is the Cruise Chaser mount from the Mogstation?

[Fourbestintoner]

The vast majority of the playerbase don't even read their skill descriptions, making you deserve it would have pissed off them off.

Hidden Gorge, Alexander raids, TEA, anything Goblin related. It could have been anywhere.
It has nothing to do on the mogstation IMO, like some other things.

I am fine with mounts being added to the store. But that one (and some others, which are based on boss models we already have in the game, like Sleipnir) I don't like it.
Especially at that price.
But hey...I'll buy it anyways...

It was a fairly slow realization based on how this thread evolved over time:
https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...-Chaser-mount?

"It's a Fete box reward"
No.
"It's a top 100 Feast rewar-"
No.
"It's from collecting all Triple Triad ca-"
No.
"Someone said 100% Save the Queen compl-"
No.
"Hopefully MGP Make it Rain rewar-"
No.
etc.

Kudos to the 2-3 people who called it being a mogstation reward back then. Considering how most of the people there unanimously didn't want it being a Feast reward, this isn't particularly a bad result.

It could have been an achievement point reward, Unreal mount, tied to Alexander Ultimate, a Blue Mage mount or added to the Gold Saucer. Instead SE decided, that after the biggest content draught yet (while still blowing up and making a lot of money), that it would charge 30 dollars for a well sought after mount playing one of the most sought after tracks.

Greedy SE gonna greed

Business wanting to make money is not a bad thing. I rather it be on mog than a feast reward.

The cruise chaser mount is on the mogstation because a company exists to make money.

imagine being like the above 2 being apologetic for a billion dollar company lmao. This is why SE and other companies gets away with it. I ain't buying the mount. But what good does that do when simpletons have figured out that SE just wants to make money off of you!

Picture not understanding how the world works. The entitlement is real. Should have name yourself snowflake.



A business whole reason is to make money, this game is not a game design out of the kindness of the heart of the developers. It is design for profit. The fact is, people are going to buy the mount. At least the developers understand that it needs to be balance good content should not come at the price of the cash shop.


So be happy that the cash shop does not lower the quality of the game like other mmorpgs.

I expected to be Mogstation but it still stings for Cruise Chaser being there.

Mount screams Rival Wings or other ultimate/ savage content to me.
(Although I could have also seen as an Ultimate crafting recipe, no kidding. Make your own CC)

I'm waiting for the mass exodus from FFXIV to another game so my login queues can go back down to normal.
